michael....Lovely shot!!! Now that you're shooting panoramas, I want to see more of the scene, like in this shot, would have loved to see the top of the trees and some sky....
Shot a Viper yesterday...
Thanks for the C&C faisal. Nice Viper, but I actually prefer your car shots with some sort of backgroud.

Thanks. Here's a link to it bigger, but not full resolution. I don't put full res. shots on my site...
I think I needed a tripod, this isn't as sharp as some of the insect shots others have posted.
What settings/gear were you using? There are a lot of ways to improve shots like this. Tripods for macro are generally great but not so much when chasing bugs.

The respect of those you respect is greater than the applause of the multitude.
nqjudo, it was my 60mm macro, on manual focus, ISO 400, f/6.3, ss1/40. I was focused at 1:1 and moved the camera to try and focus on the eyes. Framing wise I didn't have a lot of choice as the critter was on a glass door. Tips appreciated.

one of my submissions made it onto the cover of this 160-page book, which is conducted by CBS TV Chicago. There were some 27,800 submissions total, from around 2500 submitters, with the premise to capture the best photos of Chicago, in general - not only limited to architecture or cityscapes. Sounds like this book is pretty nice, not even talking about the cover.
HUGE congrats man!
